Dear All,
I'm calling mine "Teddy" after Ted Yarbrough, whose interest and support have never wavered!
(I hope that's ok, Ted!)
Have fun!

With all due respect to Ted and all I suggest "Noseeum"

:D ;D ;D ;D :P :P :P :P

Friends,
An appropriate name might be Dannie, as the twin of Annie?
Just a suggestion.
Happy Rails To You,
Ted

Lets hope soonseeum proves to be correct!  Hope to meet you in Chama in August!

Have fun!

HI Bach-man,   

It would truly be an honor and I know Ted would feel the same way,  Thanks for keeping a lighthearted approach to having fun, does me  a lot of good these days!! 8)

Bach Man,
As Bill said, that would be an honor, and I also agree we have fun. Thank you Bach Man for the suggestion. I really don't much care what name it has, just as long as they arrive before long. I'll take two, one Flying Grande and one Bumblebee (and maybe a couple more from possible future runs as D&RG 168 and RGS 20)!
Happy Rails To You,
Ted

Well for sure the D&RGW versions are "Teddy's"

Edit: I had a question about the motor but found it.  Pittman motors are great!

Loco Bill Canelos

Mark,

Couldn't agree more on the Pittman motors. Definitely high quality!  I had them in many of my HO locomotives, and they seemed to be bulletproof. I know I abused them from time to time with shorts and such but none ever burned up or failed in any way.

No question at all about the Rio Grande versions all being Teddy's!!!  Maybe even the Rio Grande 20 if Bachmann ever puts out that version in the future. LOL

Bill,
I am excited for the Victorian Iron Hose Roundup to be finally (and hopefully) happening this summer. I have tickets!
Happy Rails To You,
